The Collected Poems of Robert Creeley - (Paperback)

This collection of poems by Robert Creeley is a masterpiece of 20th century American poetry.

With language that is both spare and striking, Creeley's work extends the achievements of his predecessors Pound, Williams, Zukofsky, and Olson, while providing a method for his successors to explore the new American poetic consciousness.

His succinctness is like an unfettered flashing of a diamond, and his poetry is a touchstone for what poetry can be.

This collection is a must-read for any lover of poetry, as it is vivid, immediate, and telling.

It is a work of art that will live with an intrinsic movement of its own to verify it.
